Hextraction Gear Tile Remix

This remix of Zack Freedman’s Gear Tile & Card was made primarily for aesthetic reasons. The major changes were to remove the built-in sacrificial supports as most printers should be able to bridge this distance without the need for supports & to clean up some alignment issues. See the changelog below for more information.

Print Settings

This tile & card should be properly oriented & are designed to be printed without supports. For best results, print using a 0.2mm layer height. I used 40% infill, but you can experiment with other infill densities if you’d like.

To print the tile & card with 2 filament colors as I have, using a 0.2mm layer height, these are the filament swaps needed:

Gear Tile
Layer 1-20: bronze
Layer 21-25: black
Layer 26-75: bronze

Gear Tile Card
Layer 1-10: black
Layer 11-25: bronze
